This method takes source code, compiles it, then reverses it back to source.
script
 -     the source code to be compiled. If invalid, a compile error occurscompilePhase
 -     the CompilePhase. Must be an int mapped in CompilePhaseclassLoader
 -     (optional) the classloader to use. If missing/null then the current is used.    
    This parameter enables things like ASTBrowser to invoke this with the correct classpathshowScriptFreeForm
 -     Whether or not to show the script portion of the source codeshowScriptClass
 -     Whether or not to show the Script class from the source codeRun this class as a script to compile a groovy file and print out the resulting source.
